Probationary IAS officer Puja Khedkar's training in Maharashtra was put on hold on Tuesday amid a row over her selection in the civil services exam. Khedkar is under the scanner for allegedly forging disability certificates to clear the Civil Services examination.

The Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration (LBSNAA), Mussoorie, in a letter said that it has decided to place the District Training Program of Puja Dilip Khedkar on hold and has issued an immediate recall for further necessary action.

According to the official notice from LBSNAA dated July 16, Puja Khedkar, who is currently the Super Numerary Assistant Collector in Washim, Maharashtra, has been relieved from her training duties in Maharashtra.

She has been asked to report back to the Academy as soon as possible, and no later than July 23.
